What the Garland Shooter’s Lawyer Said About Him Should Worry You About ‘Moderate Muslims’

I think we should encourage any moderate Muslims who accept Western values, but what the lawyer said about Elton Simpson, the terrorist who attempted to murder conservatives at a “Draw Muhammed” contest should worry anyone about what that means.

The attorney who once defended one of two men who opened fire at a “Draw Muhammad” event in Texas on Sunday says she was “shocked” to learn that he was involved in the attack. She says she has represented a number of people charged with terrorism-related crimes. Some of them are the “worst of the worst,” but Elton Simpson was “one of the good ones,” she said.

“He was always respectful to me and my staff—did everything he was supposed to do,” attorney Kristina Sitton told Vocativ.

And later:

Sitton says the narrative of the shooting is not representative of the client she describes as a kind, respectful young man who frequently tried to convert her and others to Islam. “He was always kind about it,” she said. “He would say, ‘the Koran says this and the Koran says that,’ but it was always respectful.”

So a young Muslim man who was very respectful and kind to non-believers, even when the FBI was trying to imprison him, ended up trying to kill Americans. That doesn’t make me feel better about the supposedly moderate Americans that we’re supposed to believe comprise the majority of the “religion of peace.”

That doesn’t mean all Muslims are violent, but it does mean that even those “respectful” and “kind” Muslims may end up shooting up a conservative conference.

What is a “moderate” muslim? One who doesn’t him(her)self kill, but suports those who do!

Rick

If he was a moderate Muslim, why was the FBI trying to imprison him?

DonCentTX

Note that “moderate” was in quotes. There is no such thing. Any person who follows the koran or the teachings of mohammad is a muslim and cannot be trusted nor respected. islam is the antithesis of everything the United States stands for.

Rick

You are absolutely right about that ! I’m in Texas as well Don, near the coast.

Pretty much! Once they are sufficiently “offended” these “moderates” take up arms just as quickly as the extremists. The “religion of peace” tells them to do so and they blindly follow.

Conrad Gabbard

Interestng how so many non-Muslims desperately try to project their own concepts and values on others – regardless of what those “others” may say:
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkish PM: “The term ‘moderate Islam’ is ugly and offensive. There is no moderate Islam. Islam is Islam.” and:
“Turkey is not a country where moderate Islam is sovereign. First of all, the ‘moderate Islam’ concept is wrong. The word ‘Islam’ is a simple word – it is only Islam. If you say ‘moderate Islam,’ then an alternative is created.” September, 2007
Is the Muslim who obeys and imitates Mohammed in all things for all time – as over 90 verses in the Koran require – a “moderate” or “extremist” – especially since Mohammed’s most trusted biography (by Ibn Ishaq) devotes 67% of the text to various forms of jihad?

Emel Pruismann

A extreme muslim wants to cut your head off…..A moderate muslim wants to watch an extreme muslim cut your head off…..now do you know the difference

MARYSWEET

That lawyer is delusional. If given the chance, the so called moderate muslims will do just what the Garland muslims did. It is inbred from the day they are born to kill anyone who doesn’t think they way they do and if anyone makes any remarks about their degenerate mohammad.

Conrad Gabbard

Sorry, Mary, Muslims are kept ignorant of their own doctrine – strongly discouraged from studying it “unguided” for fear of “misunderstanding.” The reality is that anyone taking a free hand in the study of Islamic doctrine will soon discover over 220 self-contradictions in the Koran alone (as dictated my Mohammed, a verifiable mental case). The options become to embrace the power of this doctrine over the ignorant or reject the whole concept as the fraud which it is. See:
Theophanes, Historian (752-817), believed Muhammad was an epileptic.
Dede Korkut, MD, gives a similar analysis in “The Medical Case of Muhammad.”
Armin Geus, Medical historian speaks of a paranoid hallucinatory schizophrenia.
Herman Somers, MD, PhD argues acromegaly in “The other Muhammad” (1992).
Masud Ansari, MD, PhD, in “Psychology of Mohammed: Inside the Brain of a Prophet,” calls Muhammad “the perfect personification of a psychopath in power.”
We need to educate ourselves so we can educate others – kafir and Muslim alike.

MARYSWEET

You brought up some interesting articles which I intend to research further but it sure makes sense from what I’ve read about the degenerate. You’re so right about muslims not wanting their fellow muslims to really study the Koran or anything else. That is one reason why they don’t want the woman educated. The would prove to be smarter then the men and that would be a catastrophe.
Thanks again for the info.

There aren’t any “moderate Muslims”! There are only active “Radical Terrorist Muslims”; “Active Terrorist Muslims”; “Terrorist Muslims”; “Terrorist Muslim Supporters”; Intimidated Muslims; and the very few remaining Muslims that do not fully support the dictates of the Qur’an to CONVERT or KILL the INFIDELS!

Give us a break!

Muslims are charming and they use it to deceive and entice being accomplished liars, which is NOT frowned upon by their Kiran, but rather encouraged in order to achieve their goals! They are very different from any Christian raised individual!

Stop kidding yourself, the moderate ones use the same Qur’an . And if you ever get a chance to read it you will see that it says to fool the infidel into believing you are his friend. They do not belong here, they have to much to say about how we are here and they were the ones stomping on the flag when that airman got arrested. So that shows you where their loyalties are.

Larry Cowden

What is most disturbing is the number of liberal lawyers that line up to defend those suspected of terrorist activities. They can’t see a threat if it slapped them in the face. And that dumb bimbo is the poster child for all of them! Is this their “progressive” agenda for America?

Most of those lawyers don’t seem to know whose side they are on themselves. There is an unholy alliance between the marxists and the muslims.

Shariah law defines jihad as a “communal obligation” and defines those past puberty and sane as potential jihadists – when called. Care to speculate what happens when you’re elgible, called and refuse the invitation from your local imam?

The problem is not “radical Islam”. The problem is Islam. From the so called “moderate” Muslim point of view the problem is that ISIS and Boko Haram are exposing the Islamic plans for the world too early. The “moderate Muslims” would prefer to just continue
massively out breeding the non-Muslim population until the Islamic population is large enough for Sharia to be voted in in Democracies. Islam through Sharia is in reality just another totalitarian system of conquest and control. It is also an ultimate goal of Islamists everywhere. Allowing Sharia to be practiced in any Western nation (or any non-Muslim country) is exactly the same as allowing any other alien form of government to be practiced there. When Sharia is the law of the land the ISIS like phase of operations to eliminate all non-Muslims can be carried out with victory assured.

Muslims are killing people in every country that has more than a few Muslims. They are killing people in the US, Canada, England, Germany, Holland, France, Italy, Russia, China, India, Thailand, Myanmar, the Philippines, Australia, Indonesia, Nigeria, all over the Middle East, Central Asia, and Africa. The killing is always and everywhere blamed on the US or Israel or somebody – anybody – else. But the only constant is Muslims killing people. Muslims are at war with the rest of humanity not the other way around.

To Muslims the rest of us are infidels who must be eliminated. The evidence is overwhelming that they are actively pursuing this goal. Most if not all of this killing is completely acceptable to the overwhelming majority of Islamic clergy and is in fact widely encouraged by these hateful fanatics. Islam has no “Thou shalt not kill”. Murder in the name of Allah is considered a duty and virtuous rather than blasphemous. There has never been an Islamic Reformation, don’t hold your breath waiting for one.

To Muslims this is a total war. It started 1300+ years ago – and they fully intend to win it. It will end when either everybody is Muslim or no one is Muslim. The “Caliph” has made it clear Muslims will kill all non-Muslims. As for the means – keep in mind if today “only” 1% of Muslims are Jihadists that means there are over 16M Jihadists. Now the Taliban, created owned and operated by Pakistan, is joining with ISIS. Pakistan has nuclear weapons – how soon will the “caliphate” get nuclear weapons?

As for “peaceful Muslims” remember there were peaceful Russians but that didn’t stop Stalin and his followers from killing millions of people. There were peaceful Germans but that didn’t stop Hitler and his followers from killing millions of people. There were peaceful Chinese but that didn’t stop Mao and his followers from killing millions of people. There were peaceful Cambodians but that didn’t stop Pol Pot and his followers from killing millions of people. Today so called “peaceful Muslims”, if indeed any such actually exist, do next to nothing to stop Jihadists from achieving their goal.

The rest of us no longer can we just wait and hope. The most serious threat today is Islam. The US, EU, Russia, China, India and all non-Muslims need to unite to contain Islam and end Islam’s war on the world.

Obama is a Muslim. I never heard him deny it.

There is no such thing as a moderate muslim (I refuse to capitalize that word, drives my spell check nuts). Islam is all or nothing, don’t believe me, ask a “moderate” muslim which part of the koran he doesn’t believe, and watch him dance around the question. It’s apostocy to not accept EVERYTHING in the koran, punishable by death.

Ricky Bates

if he was such a kind and respectful person why did he need a lawyer. she said (I she has represented a number of people for terrorism-related crimes and he was one of the good ones) which seems to indicate a pattern of terrorism

lostproton

When these “Moderate Muslims” get confronted by an Imam who will tell them to either live by the Shariah Law in the Qur’an or be expelled from Islam and marked for beheading as an infidel; then they will become like the Islamic/Muslims of the Islamic State (ISIS). Those Imams are growing in numbers as more of them are being granted asylum here and their mission is to promote the complete mission of Islam to rule the world.

tnetcenter

That’s why there is no such thing as a “moderate” muslim. There is only muslims and jihadis.

Islam Explained in Layman’s Terms

Islam is not a religion, nor is it a
cult. In Its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life Islam
has religion, legal, political economic, social, and military components. The
religious component is a beard for all the other components.

Islamization begins when there are
sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges. When
political correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim
demands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to
creep in as well

1.
As long as Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given
country they will be for the most part regarded as a peace-loving minority and
not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in: Japan 0.14%, Australia
with 1.5% Muslim population, Canada with 1.9%, Italy 1.5%.

2. At 2% to 5% they begin to proselytize
from ethnic minorities, especially those that have considered themselves
victims of their own society, and other disaffected groups. Often with major
recruiting from jails and among street gangs, especially for them whose nature
is most violent. This includes United States 2.1%, Spain with 2.3%, and United Kingdom
with 4.6%.

3. From
5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage
of population. For example, they will push for the introduction of hala (clean
by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims.
They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their
shelves –along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in: France
with 9.6% Muslim population, Sweden at 5%, Germany with 5%, Norway with 5.1%, the Netherlands at 5.5%,
Denmark with 5.6%, Switzerland at 5.7%, Trinidad & Tobago 5.8%, Belgium
with 6%, Austria with 6.2%.

At this point, they will work to get
the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos)
under sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish
Sharia Law over the entire world.

4. When Muslims approach 10% of the
population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about
their ghetto conditions, which they have made sure that they stay separated
from the main population of the host nation. In Paris, we are already seeing
car-bombings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and
threats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films
about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections.
Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections, in” China with 10%, Philippines at 10%,
Thailand with 10% Guyana which is 10%, Kenya 10.5%, Muslim,
India 13.4%, Russia 19%, and Israel 16%.

7. From 60%, host nations experience
unfettered persecutions of non-Muslim believers. All other religions with
sporadic ethnic cleansings genocide even of different sects of Muslims. The use of Sharia Lw as a weapons, and Jizya
The taxation of infidels, such as Qatar with 77.5%, Albania with 79.9%, and
Sudan with 70% Muslim population,

8. After 80% expect Daly intimidation and
violent Jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansings even among their own sects, and
genocide as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim,
Such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in: Bangladesh with a
population of 83%, Indonesia
86%, Malaysia 80.4%, Egypt with 90%,
Syria with 90%, Tajikistan 90%, Lebanon with 92%, Jordan with 94, Pakistan with 96.3%, Iraq with 97%, Iran With 98%, Palestine with 98%, Gaza with 98.7%, United Arab
Emirates with 98%, Morocco with 98.1, Turkey with 99.8%,

9. When the population reaches 100% Muslim,
it will usher in the supposed peace of “Dar-es-Salaam” –the Islamic house of
peace. Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is Muslim, The
madrassas are the only schools, and the Quran is the only word, such as in:
Afghanistan which 100% of the population is Muslim, Saudi Arabia 100%, Somalia
100%.

Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as these 100% states
are the most radical Muslims and intimidate and spew hatred, and their blood
lusts for killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.

When the author of bases of this article was nine he learned
The basic of Arab life. It was him against his brothers; him and his brothers
against his father; his family against his cousins and the clan; then the clan
against the tribe; the tribe against the world, and all of us against the
infidels —Leon Uris, “The Haj”—

Luke 12:52-53, 52 For from henceforth there shall be five in
one house divided, three against two, and two against three. 53 The father
shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother
against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law
against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
KJV

Doesn’t this sound like the Arab way of life as seen though
the eyes of Leon Uris?

It is important to understand that in some countries, with
well under 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the minority population of
Muslims live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and within which
they live by sharia law. The national police do not enter these ghettos. There
are no national courts, nor schools nor non-Muslim religious facilities, in
such situation, Muslims do not integrate into the communities at large. The
children attend madrassas.

There is no such thing as moderate Muslim’s.

Just like in the churches of Christianity who turn the teachings around for their own personal gains.

I just do not understand how they can get away with populating an area and think that they do not have to abide by the laws or set up their own laws and societal norms. This is just wrong. This is what is feeding the backlash against them, I feel. Sugar Land here! If I was them, I would stay away from Texas.

KingDon

Whether or not we desire war, we will be forced into such action once the Muslim population reaches levels sufficient to attempt the takeover of our nation. I’m not speaking out as right or left-winger or some sort of survivalist. I’m speaking simple reality. For their part, they have no choice but to go to war. Their religion demands that they conquer and subjugate the world. If any of them fail to do so, they will simply be hunted down and killed along with the rest of us. Theirs is not a happy or peaceful religion, but rather a life of obedience and oppression.
To do otherwise would require that they review and revise the Quran to be more in line with and reflect the realities of the 21st century, something they are not willing to so.

A Christian

What a JOKE. How is the Koran “respectful” when it talks about SLAUGHTERING all non-Muslims and declaring Jihad on all “non-believers of Allah”? Sure, let’s go back to the days of the Biblical Old Testament where “revenge killings” of an eye for an eye were accepted. THAT is why Jesus came, and HE tells us NOT to live like those bloodthirsty unforgiving insane INhumans of those ancient days. If the radical Muslims insist on living a lifestyle from several centuries ago, then WHY are they even here in “modern day” America — except to scheme, LIE and plan for destruction??? So these TERRORISTS will “respectfully” kill those will beliefs different than them??? RIDICULOUS!!! The next thing we hear is that bloodthirsty SCUM OF THE EARTH MURDERER Terrorists are “gentlemen”. Go peddle your INSANITY somewhere else!!!

For 1400 years they have been tell us that they will kill us if we don’t convert, and I’m dang sure that they mean it!
